LOOKING OUT MY WINDOW




A rare funky single from the Welshman himself, "Lookin Out My Window" is one of the heaviest tunes that Tom Jones ever cut, with a wild, psychedlic, massive break (about 1:10 in) that first started getting sampled 20 years ago (Big Daddy Kane's "It's a Big Daddy Thing") and became a collector favorite after DJ Andy Smith (Portishead's DJ) included this nugget on his legendary mixtape, "The Document." You can practically see the VU meters getting pegged on this one.
